New AOL Desktop Beta with Favorites enhancements
Hi all,
We've just released a new Beta of a slightly enhanced version of AOL Desktop. It includes an updated Favorites import system as well as a few edits to the way you manage and access your Favorite Places in the browser.
Your feedback on the changes we've made would be greatly appreciated.
Please go to the AOL Desktop Refresh Beta site and participate in the focus test questionnaire.
